Preface 

n Placing This Folio Collection before the public, the com- 
piler takes pleasure in stating that it is the only complete 
collection ever issued, containing, as it Joes, all the Missions 
of California, together with the "Home ol Ramona," the bath 
house used by the Mission Fathers over one hundred years 
ago, and the celebrated chair imported from Spain by Father 
Junipero Serra. 

The Missions herein represented are located about forty 
miles apart, ten having been founded by Father Junipero 
Serra and the others by his successors, all of whom have 
long since passed away. 

Many of the Missions themselves are now in ruins noth- 
ing but mounds of adobe marking the place where once they 
stood — thus making this collection a valuable agency for per- 
petuating their memory, as well as a charming souvenir of 
California during the most poetic epoch in its history.
